Graffiti

Graffiti

A Poem by Balkaran Sidhu

Art speaks for me silently
doesn’t speak my name but
whispers the inevitability of my existence

Like a foolish graffiti artist
you drew my life invisibly,
and tore apart your sheets
over and over again.

Till I could fully resurrect into hopeless forms
and sing the rhyme of justice
Till I could die and find a suitable
rubble of ash to mix with.

So that you could make merry with yourself
and proudly wear a grin
Primed, pietistic, ignorant.

I mutely survive your barrage
till I could become an artist myself
through linguistic flaws, emotive superiority

All shipped and floated
while u mimic my end.
